The authors regret a mistake in Table 1. Contrary to the statement in footnote a (applicable to age, BMI and HbA1c), only BMI was standardised and thus the OR for HbA1c and age is expressed per 1 unit, not 1 SD. The table and footnote are corrected here.

Data are presented as numbers (%) and mean ± SD, or median [25th–75th percentile] if not normally distributed

OR corresponds to an increase of 1 unit of any quantitative variable, except for BMI. BMI was natural log transformed before OR calculation, which corresponds to an increase of 1 SD

Ethnicity: EU (Europid), MENA (Middle East North Africa); AC (African or Caribbean), AS (Asian)

HbA1c corresponds to the HbA1c value determined in the 6 months prior to or in the first 7 days following hospital admission

Diabetic kidney disease defined as eGFR ≤60 ml min−1 [1.73 m]−2 and/or proteinuria

MRAs include spironolactone and eplerenone

ACS, acute coronary syndrome; CAR, coronary artery revascularisation; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; GLP1-RA, glucagon-like peptide 1-receptor agonist; LLAR, lower limb artery revascularisation; NAFLD, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; TIA, transient ischaemic attack
